Cliphi overview

Decision checklist

  • Buying consideration: Processing costs 1 credit per minute of source video and rendering costs 0.25 credits per second of clip output, so an hour-long video cut into ten 45-second clips uses about 172 credits. Visitors in India see rupee plans from ₹199 (400 credits) to ₹999 (2,500 credits); visitors elsewhere see $4.99 to $29.99. Unused plan credits roll over and remain after cancellation. Older directory listings quoting $1.49 are out of date.
  • Operational fit: Cloud / web app (no desktop or mobile app); support: Help centre and developer docs; API and MCP server for AI agents.
  • Evidence context: Verified on vendor site, with facts checked 25 Sep 2026.

What Cliphi does

Cliphi is a web app that turns long videos into short vertical clips. It transcribes the source, scores the strongest moments, then renders each chosen moment with speaker framing, animated captions and music. It can also clip YouTube, Twitch and Kick streams while they are still live.

How the pricing works

Cliphi bills in credits: 1 per minute of source video and 0.25 per second of rendered clip, so an hour-long episode cut into ten 45-second clips uses about 172 credits. Visitors in India see plans from ₹199/month for 400 credits; elsewhere Explorer is $4.99 for 1,200. Every plan includes every feature, and credits never expire.

Where it fits

Podcasters and streamers posting several shorts per video will find the per-episode cost low. It is not the tool for 4K output, team workspaces or editable timelines, and it has no independent reviews yet, so test it on one episode first.

Starting price: ₹199/month in India (Explorer, 400 credits); $4.99/month elsewhere (Explorer, 1,200 credits). Model: Credit-based monthly subscription plus one-time credit packs.

Worked exampleIn India, the ₹199 Explorer plan's 400 credits covers about two hour-long episodes with ten 45-second clips each; the ₹499 plan's 1,200 credits covers about six.
